Hello,

I am a newbie when it comes to Linux and I have just installed Debian.
After installation my screen resolution is 800*600 eventhough my
monitor supports 1024*768.

How can I change this?
In the screen setting I only have 800*600 and 600*480 resolution to
choose from. (in the drop-down list).

Regads,

Perry
